A Christian University College

an Australian Christian University complementing the Australian Higher Education landscape.

an institution built on Christian values and ethos, yet determinedly focussed on providing excellent tertiary education designed for the interconnected and integrated global digital world.

local communities, the academic community, and the wider public community benefitting from Christians who embrace their opportunity to contribute to the social capital of the networks in which they find themselves.

an easily identifiable Australian Christian Academic Community equipped to contribute to intellectual enquiry and exploration through research and scholarship for the common public good.

There is great benefit in establishing an Australian Christian University that enables students to explore how their lives can contribute to society by understanding the Christian faith as they equip themselves for a professional vocation. Not only will students be able to study in a broad range of fields, such as education, law, engineering, the natural sciences, the creative arts, and the social sciences, they will also gain grounding in the Christian theological and philosophical tradition as a paradigm for exploring larger questions as they pertain to life, faith, vocation, society and the public good.

The University College will provide from Certificate and Diploma level awards through to Bachelor, Masters and Doctorate awards. This initiative creates access pathways for students from all walks of life and educational backgrounds to achieve their educational goals. Enabling them to move seamlessly from one level of award into the next if desired.

This is an ambitious vision and project, but through the unified support of the many individuals who form part of Christian communities across Australia and beyond, this can become a reality.​Right now, we're looking to gather as much momentum for the project as possible. Show your support by becoming One of a Million.

We'd love to know a little bit more about you if you would like to tell us eg: who you are, why you believe in our vision, anything you like to tell us about yourself. Even a couple of words is fine. Thanks - we appreciate it.

Why the Vision?

Currently, there is not a single fully functional evangelical Christian University in Australia. This is detrimental to both the Christian Community and the public intellectual sphere. There is immense value in providing an institution which not only educates and trains people for particular professions, but also enables them to intellectually explore philosophy and theology from a Christian faith perspective and contemplate how our understandings of knowledge and truth impact our existence. Excellent education that provides students with a professional qualification, but also provides a fertile environment for exploring an holistic understanding of themselves, the physical world, and the social world of which they were a part. Through this focus students will be provided the opportunity to understand how their life, not just their profession, can contribute to a meaningful society.Alongside this, there is room for an Australian intellectual voice to be fostered which can enter the public discourse from an informed Christian perspective. An Australian Christian University will provide the opportunity for academics and professionals from a range of fields, yet who share the Christian faith, to foster an intellectual community, built on research and scholarship, which is engaged in public discourse for the greater good of society.
